Gitorious 3.0 released!

We are happy to announce a new major release for Gitorious, version 3.0.

Gitorious provides an open source infrastructure for hosting projects that use Git. It also supports projects with wikis, a web interface for merge requests and code reviews and activity timelines for projects and developers.

BitnNami Gitorious Stack provides a one-click install solution for Gitorious. You can download installers and virtual machines or run your own Gitorious server in the Amazon EC2 or Azure clouds. You can also now launch a free cloud demo server with the Bitnami Cloud Launchpad by clicking the launch button below.

The recently released 3.0 version ships a refreshed UI, a lot of improvements, and new features. The new repository browser comes with improved syntax highlighter, ability to select lines of code and friendlier navigation. It also has a nicer Dashboard, an improved merge request page and a new settings section.

In addition to that, Gitorious 3.0 now uses Ruby 1.9.3 and Rails 3.2.15 and all 3rd party gem dependencies has been updated to the latest versions.

Gitorious is developed by Gitorious AS, which also provides commercial prepackaged versions of Gitorious as well as managed servers and professional consulting services. Make sure to check them out if you need commercial support for Gitorious.
